Some individuals, teams and even countries use sports for activism or protests. They use matches and tournaments as a platform for protest or raise concern. Do you think this is good, do you think sports should be mixed with activism?

Sports and activism together are complicated. On one hand, athletes and teams have a huge platform, so using it to raise awareness about injustice can be powerful and necessary. On the other, some argue sports should remain neutral to avoid division. I believe it shouldn't be used for activism
I think sports activism can be powerful because athletes have a large platform to raise awareness about social issues. Mixing sports with activism is effective when done thoughtfully, but it should respect the spirit of the game while promoting positive change without alienating fans.
